Talking Heads: Political Talk Shows and Their Star Pundits

By Alan Hirsch

A major change is taking place in America's political debate: the nespaper opinion section is being supplanted by what Alan Hirsch calls television's op-ed page--political talk shows on which journalists argue about issues, shows that are aggressive, fast-paced roundtables offering more titillation than illumination, shows that have trivalized the country's political discourse.
